World’s most powerful facial?
Well, I may not have tried every single facial in this world, but I have tried quite a few! From professional spa facials, to trending DIY fruit facials, and everything else in between. And I can honestly say this Indian Healing Clay is one of my favorites!
What are the skin benefits of Natural Calcium Bentonite Clay? Well, deep pore cleansing of course, just like it states on the label! Truly though, this clay is great for cleansing pores and blackheads and drawing out impurities. I have sensitive skin and my skin loves this mask!
How to make a facial mask with clay? Mix the clay with equal parts Apple Cider Vinegar or water. If you would like a stronger cleansing mask, I suggest mixing the clay with vinegar. And if you want a mask that will be less harsh on your skin, I recommend mixing with water. Stir until the mixture is smooth and not so clumpy!
My Go-To: Bragg’s Organic Apple Cider Vinegar.
I love using this vinegar for a facial mask because it is organic and non-GMO. And since we are trying to cleanse our pores and draw out toxins, we don’t want a vinegar with any nasty ingredients or chemicals!
How to apply: Apply a thick, even layer to your face. Allow the clay to dry for about 10-20 minutes. The thicker the layer, the longer it will take to dry.
Listen to your skin though! I also use this clay mask on my chest, but I remove it from my chest a solid 5 minutes before removing it from my face because the skin is so much more sensitive. A tightening, tingling sensation is normal! If it hurts, remove it right away.
How to remove: I wet a washcloth with warm water and a pump of my cleanser. Cleanse your face in circular motions and then pat dry. Finish with a toner, then your regular skin care products, and Voila!
Other Highlights:
- Use this mask anywhere else on your body to help improve skin texture and appearance wherever you might need a little TLC!
- Soak in a clay bath for a full body detox!
“For a relaxing, full-body detox, combine 2 cups of Epsom salt, 1 cup apple cider vinegar, 20 drops geranium oil, 20 drops lavender oil, ½ cup clay powder, and mix well. Add the concoction to a warm water bath before bed, and prepare to have the best sleep of your life. The next day, your body will feel like new. Use it about once a week, no more (as you don’t want to over-detox).”
